Item Description:
I am pleased to offer this original and rare hand-made Edo period Japanese samurai
Jitte
. The Jitte was used by samurai police and officials as a type of badge indicating their status as an authority. They could also be used to block a sword strike but were more commonly used to manipulate joints to cause an assailant to submit.
This jitte is made of iron and has a very nice patina.
It is 37.5 inches (96cm) in length. It has a purple and maroon wrap on the handle.
It is
mumei
, or unsigned, but has a well-implemented
Hosokawa Mon
. The jitte is in
Near MINT
condition with a nice patina and no observable flaws. I think this would be an outstanding addition for a collector of Japanese swords and antiques.
